If You Want to Get Ahead....
I am a man of many ongoing projects, all of
which involve transferring the contents of teetering boxes of
stuff (be it audio or visual) onto a digital
medium, and few of which I'll probably ever
completely finish. Still, I'm having a great
deal of fun along the way, particularly with
my recent car-boot sale acquisition, a photo
scanner, which is allowing me to fully explore
the family negative and slide archive. Mind
you, I've only just begun to scratch the surface and have already discovered many a dodgy snapshot of yours truly - the moustache period of the mid-1970's,
what was I thinking? Then, of course, there
was my early 1960's penchant for very small
hats.

Well, what a fabulous collection of headwear. You were clearly a style guru in the making and I hope you continue to sport the 'tiny hat' look on special occasions!
I love seeing people's childhood photos and really appreciate these, so I'm afraid your mere mention of the moustache is not enough. We need to see some evidence, please - photographic evidence!!
Thanks C. Sadly all hats seem tiny on my head nowadays! I'll have a think about sharing a 'tache pic, but I'm not keen on the idea!
What a collection of titfers! Wonderful. Now - about those moustache pics? Come on!
Can't listen to the song as speakers currently busted. Sob.
SB. Oh no! Hope the speaker problem isn't too difficult (or expensive) to fix.
mad as a hatter....i have only a couple of photos of me under the age of 20, however Old Ma has thousands of her time in Egypt and France,,,I am happy to say she has kept up snapping!
